befek: Hi Raxx, this is everyone
BubasparksAB: I get that they want the game to be slower then PoE1, issue is, combat is slower, yet mobs are still like they came out of PoE1.
RacingBlind9: Just want to say thank you. As a visually impaired person, having the notes reviewed by someone who both understands the content and is able to speak clearly and consistently is so nice. Thanks you so much!
Aetherkin: Step 1: cast curse
Step 2: wait 1.5s for curse to apply
Step 3: pray monsters didn’t move out of curse
Step 4: wait for half the curse duration to expire
Step 5: cast hexblast
Holy shit hexblast is officially slower than warrior.
justinvogt6227: Raxx putting in the work, mad respect bro. Thank you for quick upload
eLguL: Thanks for the summary for ppl that would need the whole week to read those patchnotes
chillneophite8863: POE 2 is entirely Ruthless now. The goal has been achieved. Last Epoch on April 17th(?) is the new release date to care about now.
pawels5052: Casual player dad here. Will definitely check out your next 'best beginner's guide'! But the nerfs... man. It only seems like yesterday that I could finally feel the minion witch 'on-line' :(
ForceGamingYT: Raxx, please. I need your build guides. I’m hopeless without LOL
Side note, I pray to god the Lich ascension offsets some of these minion build nerfs. Maybe we get lucky and some spectres are hilarious overturned.
Frostylaroo: Thank you for your great work once again my dude! These summaries are beyond helpful!
ProbablyJacob: that hexblast nerf is so tragic, was really looking forward to curse stacking on the lich
whyabadi: Thanks for the detailed summary. It seems fair that they are trying to adjust the gameplay experience to fit their desired difficulty level, but they seem to be ignoring a lot of pain points that often put you in a situation where you have absolutely no tools available to deal with the challenge, especially if you are not a hardcore player. Getting swarmed, dragged and pushed around, jumped by monsters with extreme movement speed, constantly getting light stunned, dying while animation-locked...these are some of these pain points.
VolkanKucukemre: Nerfs are expected. But as long as the pacing at endgame stays the same, people are even more incentivized to find broken builds that clears multiple screens in one shot. Stun being 3 seconds and lowered ailment tresholds on players sounds awful.
1010nm1: So, from what I am seeing Last Epoch should have kept their release date lol.
maximvelesyuk461: I guess its time to enjoy new Last Epoch content
Matt-x6c: Well I guess we’ll have fun in Last Epoch.
MrBuns-yi2hk: It's actually insane to me that Hexblast and Flameblast got nerfed into the ground when they were already mediocre, yet Falling Thunder of all things got a buff...
I don't remember seeing any nerfs to most of the Monk skills either. Only Tempest Bell.
fakenickib6245: wait. minion witch is nerfed?
then what the fuck is the point in playing witch?
purplelurple8029: So the easy maps, that you didnt die on anyways are now 6 portals. And the maps, that used to be a problem with monsters pushing you arround and random oneshots from stupid stuff are still 1 map 1 try?
kennyshi8933: i was listening to the video while driving to work this morning, every second I listen, the more I want just go home and call it a day. Mood completely gone
TerdFergesin: GGG: "No fun allowed. Deal with it"
-Raejinn-: Why did they kill minion builds. They weren't even in the top 10 builds late game.
Kure_Games: They didn’t do reciprocal buffs to bad stuff and uniques, of which was most of the items and stuff in the game.
Chiller0871: Man, the devs brought out the big knife, cut off all the red meat, and left us the bone and gristle.
This patch represents a reinventiom of the entire game. I hope this doesn't become a habit, because theory-crafting is fun the first time, but if I have to relearn the game every major patch, I'm just going to go find something else to do.
